Why Modclub?

Well, there are plenty of mod related subreddits here, however we are trying to be a single point of discussions related to all of the needs of reddit moderators. We are helping them develop their subreddits and at the same time, they can talk about anything they like.

Moderators AMA

ModClub is also a place for Redditor Moderators to start an AMA. Please feel free to start an AMA, however only once in 6 months. Please write an initial brief introduction about yourself and mention couple of subreddits you mod, in your Self Post.

If you need to request an AMA from a specific Mod. You can simply start a self post with title [AMA request Moderator username]

The Rules & Links

Get started by posting a brief introduction of yourself and mention the subreddits you moderate. (You don't have to reveal any personal information, Just general information about yourself, like what are you into and your hobbies etc.)

Please don't use this forum, to criticize or bash any reader of your subreddit.

You can post a link to your subreddit for promotion, but only once in 2 months.

Please refrain from circlejerking or meme usage. Keep discussions to a professional level.

But I really liked this 'bug,' since I would have had to see the link in order to click "hide" and choose not to see it again.

Is the real crux of this issue subreddits with multiple moderators and the lack of transparency if one moderator hides removed links from the other mods, or it is a personal view for each person? If everybody gets their own view, why not reinstate it like before? I see no downside to this...

"hides" are per user, but the spam listing is intended to be a listing of all the spam in your subreddit.

There are downsides, because hiding, while per user, is a "global" action; i.e., if you hide something in /new, but then later it shows up in your modqueue -- because it was reported -- you won't see it and won't know you need to review it. It's important that those listings - modqueue and spam - do not hide things.

It's more about the modqueue than the spam queue. On a related note, it's intended that you be able to keep your modqueue "empty," but it's not intended that you be able to keep the "spam" listing empty.

Understandable. I don't think we'll change it "back," but that doesn't mean there couldn't be some other way to get done what you want to get done. As always, /r/ideasfortheadmins welcomes suggestions.
